The London Underground Song - Lyrics (sung to the tune of "Going Underground" by The Jam)
(C) Suman Biswas and Adam Kay


Some people might like to get a train to work,
Or drive in in a beamer or a merc.
Some guys like to travel in a bus,
But I can’t be bothered with the fuss.

Today I gotta take my bike,
‘Cos once again the tube’s on strike
The greedy bastards want extra pay,
for sitting on their arse all day,
even though they’re on 30k.

So I’m standing here in the pouring rain,
WHERE THE FUCK’S MY FUCKING TRAIN?


London Underground, London Underground,
They’re all lazy fucking useless cunts.
London Underground, London Underground,
They’re all greedy cunts, I wanna shoot them all,
With a rifle…


All they say is ‘Please mind the doors’
And they learn that on the 2-day course.
This job could be done by a four-year-old.
They just leave us freezing in the cold.
What you smell is what you get,
Burger King and piss and sweat.
You roast to death from the boiling heat,
The tourists treading on your feet,
And nail bombs on every seat,
So don’t tell me, to mind the gap,
I WANT MY FUCKING MONEY BACK!

London Underground, London Underground,
They’re all lazy fucking useless cunts,
London Underground, London Underground,
They’re all greedy cunts, I wanna shoot them all,
With a rifle…

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la,

The floors are sticky and the seats are damp,
Every platform has a fucking tramp,
But the drivers get the day off when
WE’RE ALL LATE FOR WORK AGAIN!

London Underground, London Underground,
They’re all wankers! W-w-wankers!
London Underground, London Underground,
Take your Oyster Card, and shove it up your arsehole.

In the first reply please!
Love that song. I've got their first album and keep meaning to buy the second. The menstrual rag is one of my favourites.

hmmm
"The tourists treading on your feet,

So don’t tell me, to mind the gap,"

Thought that was "chewing gum on every seat", at least it is in the version I have

Chewing gum on every seat is the version on the album
but nailbombs is the version sung live now

the second album (Fitness to Practice) is very good, especially if you liked Snippets from the first one (many of the songs are snippets on the second).

Present...Pedant!
Tube drivers' salary, which you seem to be referring to, starts at £40k. Station managers are on about £35k, and the station staff (I think those that sell you tickets and stand at the barriers looking bored and waiting for something to do) start on £29k.

Which actually helps your argument. They are very well paid.

Can you put a line break between every line to make it easier to read please.

Any chance of removing it from the OP
It's annoying having to scroll past so much text to look at other threads.

Not heard that
Since I put that on at a class party on the last day of term of 2005, which was 8th of July.

I am really quite horrible.
